I read lots of Australian fiction last year - I joined a book group and all of the novels they read were current release Australian fiction that had won awards and such. This was the best of all of the books - but it wasn't actually all that good.

I didn't believe the characters, the story was a bit daft in places, I really didn't like the way the story was written almost alternatively from the perspective of the two brothers and I felt the love story in it was kind of nothing.

Besides these minor concerns it was the best of the books I read of the eight or so novels by Australians I read last year.
